Ghanaian musician and socialite Mona Monterage better known by his stage name Hajia 4real have been extradited to the USA on Monday the 15th of May 2023, to face charges of a “Romance Scam”. In the late stage of last year, Mona was arrested in the united kingdom over a suspected romance scam along with five others which targets single men and women and some of the old age. In an article published by “NEW YORK POST”, it was reported that Hajia 4Real pocketed $2 million in the funds the group ripped off from the victims to bank accounts she had in the Bronx and elsewhere including using one opened in the name of 4reall Designs.

“Montrage who had around 3.4 million Instagram followers on her page Hajia4Reall at one point from at least 2013 through 2019 was involved with a group of con artists from West Africa who assumed fake identities to trick people into thinking they were in relationships with them using emails, texts, and social media messages, the feds said. The scammers would then get the victims to transfer money to them under pretenses such as to help move gold to the US from overseas, to resolve bogus FBI investigations, and payments to help fake US Army officers in Afghanistan, court papers allege. Montrage, in one case, allegedly duped a victim into sending her $89,000 through 82 wire transfers on the pretext of helping her father's farm in Ghana, the court documents claim”.
As it stands now, new media have alleged that, Mona has pleaded not guilty to the claims leveled against her and has been ordered to pay an amount of $500, 000 for bail conditions and will be wearing a GPS tracker on her ankle until further notice. After the announcement of the news, online users have been sharing their various opinions on the matter, one that is gaining attention is videos and tweets of Mona telling young girls to keep working harder and not rely on men because hard work pays off.
